I’m obsessed with this thing, it unlocked the five year old battleship fascination that I skipped because pokemon got to me first. I used to date this guy that lived on 59th and like tenth ave and every time I’d drive past that ship I’d think “wow. Can’t believe this thing is headed for Ukraine. we really are a nation at war..” still have never been inside but its size and grandeur impresses me

i worked here for a few years and often got emotional just entering it (dramatic i know!!), it is just such a marvel, truly emblematic of the city/iconic, visiting the top was always such an adventure, also my fav part was that there are these murals throughout the lobby (mainly the ceiling but also the reception desk wall and in the elevators) that feature gears in celestial formations it is extremely steampunk!!!!

I love historical places and seeing so many incredible places shut down and beautiful buildings over the last few years has been, honestly pretty devastating. I’ve heard rumors recently that The Queen Mary might be going away so I feel like it’s important to add this to my recommendations before they drop it into the middle of the ocean.Walking onto the ship you are just completely enamored by the gorgeous interiors, the history and the haunted essence it looms. Theres been so many concerts in the parking lot since forever and the ship itself is such all around a trip. I highly recommend stopping by for a cocktail at the Observation Bar and don’t miss scoping out the pool on your way out.

and while i’m there, find my great grandparents’ names on the wall! :)
i’ve seen the statue of liberty a million times and visited it up close once, but idk why i still haven’t been to ellis island! even in the fourth grade we had “immigrant day” where we all dressed up and learned about ellis island and the immigration process back then but for some reason they didn’t take us on a field trip there…

what is a recommendation if not an expression of gratitude for some part of your life ? a provocation for others to feel that same gratitude?
